I did the same thing years ago and did not re clear coat and now they don't look so good anymore. The clear coat keeps the aluminum from oxidizing.

So does using Mother's Aluminum Polish. I've been polishing these "uncoated" billet wheels for years and they still look like new. You just have to stay on top of it and go over them every now and then.

What is 'every now and then'? Cuz time is relative. Once a season? Like during the winter?

Forget about the wheels, NICE Nova.... '72??

"every now and then" is like once every month or two during riding season. They can sit all winter... So, 15 minutes once a month or two, during riding season and they will look great!
